Yes I do, but if there is a similar store nearby that doesn't, I will use the store that doesn't.

I know my responsibilities to my family and community, therefore I'll choose masks and businesses that require them every time.

I am tired of it! It's time to get back to normal. I have been to many events outside of Boone County with large crowds and no masks required and everyone has been fine.

I agree with you, I will avoid the mask required stores if possible. If not I will wear a mask and stay as little time as I can.

Businesses choosing not to comply with CDC guidance should be punished for not complying with said guidance. Before, businesses were penalized for not complying with the CDC guidance(which actually came from the position statement of the private institution, CSTC) and it should be no different now.

If the state quit giving unemployed people paid benefits then people will start looking for a job.

Help wanted signs are everywhere and businesses are closing due to not having enough staff on hand to run their business. If businesses close the county and state lose revenue!

Everywhere you look are help wanted signs Everywhere you go employees that are on the job are explaining why the service is so slow. The explanation is the same: too many places are short of staff.

The government wants people to relay on them instead of being an independent person. Also by not working it kills the local economy.

republican sure like to keep the rich richer and the POOR poorer If Missouri employers would pay a living wage this wouldn't be happening, they would have all the employees they need, in fact be able to pick from a list of people!

The average pay for an EMT Emergency Medical Technician in Missouri is $13.10 an hour. Do you think that people who work at McDonalds should get better pay than an EMT

Yes, I think that the $300 federal should be stopped on those who have been given this since the pandemic began. They have abused this privilege by not finding a new job.But if you lose your job after June 1st you should be able to get the $300 until september but still need to report work search.
